Early light strips across the water at La Llosa del Cavall and the reservoir answers with a cool, glassy surface that seems to dare you to cross it. Paddles cut clean arcs; gulls wheel and the conglomerate cliffs that flank the valley watch like old sentries. The scene is quiet but active — families slipping into sit-on-top kayaks, couples balancing on SUP boards, and the shoreline punctuated by pine and scrub oak.
